The Man In The Bed Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[G]

[Verse 1]
[G]The man in the [D]bed [G]isn't me
Now I [C]slipped out the [G]door
[D]and I'm[G] runnin' fre[C]e
Young and [D]wild like [G]I'll [C]always be
But the man [G]in the [D]bed [G]isn't me

[Verse 2]
And these [G]tremblin' [D]hands,
[G]they're not mine
Now [C]my hands [D]are strong
[G]and steady all [C]the time
They can swing a sledge [D]hammer
or soothe a [G]baby that's [C]cryin'
These trembling [G]hands,
[D]they're not[G] mine

[Verse 3]
Now the [G]nurse over [D]there
does[G]n't know
That [C]I ain't some h[D]elpless
[G]old so- and- [C]so
I could have broken [D]her heart
[G]not that long [C]ago
Now the nurse [Am]over [D]there
does[G]n't know

[Verse 4]
That the [G]man in the [D]bed
[G]isn't me
'Cause I [C]slipped out the [D]door
and [G]I'm runnin' [C]free
Young [D]and wild like [G]I'll [C]always be
The man in the [D]bed [C]isn't me

[Verse 5]
I'm the [G]man [D]I've al[G]ways been
I'm the [C]kid who rode [D]the rails
through the [G]Great Depres[C]sion
I fought in the big [D]war and
marched [G]for the Uni[C]on
I'm the man I've [D]al [G]ways been

[Verse 6]
So [G]don't believe what the
[D]doctors [G]say
They're just [C]makin' things
[D]up so [G]they can get [C]paid
Yeah, and it ain't me they're
[D]talkin' [G]about [C]anyway
So don't believe what the
[D]doctors [G]say

[Verse 7]
'Cause the [G]man in the
[D]bed [G]isn't me
Well I [C]slipped out the [D]door
[G]and I'm [C]finally free
Young and [D]wild like [G]I'll [C]always be
No the man in the [D]bed [G]isn't me
No the [C]man in the [D]bed is[G]n't me
No the [C]man in the [D]bed isn't
[C]me
